Take a class and learn how to use Photoshop Elements! Jessica Sprague has great classes at her site www.jessicasprague.com.



I learned quickly and I have four kids at home, so if I can do it, anyone can! The classes have great video lessons and you always have access to them. It is worth the time and money you will spend. PSE gives you so much flexibility, I think it's worth it to learn.



Digi scrappiing is so fun...hope you have fun learning it!

www.scrapbookflair.com has many wonderful freebies, a great online community, and does really good quality printing of all sizes of pages. I use mostly their stuff with Adobe Photoshop Elements. Sometimes I upload the completed pages to Shutterfly.com and create a bound photo album. Shuttterfly is a terrific printing company too.

I love shutterfly.com You can make hard bound books that are great. Considering the amount of money I put into stickers, paper, and albums they have great prices. They also have different sales all the time. I've made calendars, magnets, photo books and I order pictures from there all the time!

Creative Memories offers free software that has many different book styles, lots of templates in each book. Pretty easy to use, and you can make the book and then decide if you like it enough to purchase it.

We also have a "plus" version of the software that allows you to resize/remove elements on the templates or even create your own pages from scratch. If you want to be really creative, this is a nice choice. But the basic is a great way to start. I've made several books on the basic program and haven't felt the need to upgrade yet.

You can check it out on www.creativememories.com

Let me know if you have any other questions about it. I'd be happy to help. :-)
